McKiernan gets early boot from A-stan – why?

Gen. David McKiernan is having his tour as U.S. commander in Afghanistan ended 13 months early from a normal two-year tour of duty.

Why?

Team Obama won’t tell us.

My guess is McKiernan is skeptical enough about a “surge” in A-stan, and said so, to get on the outs.
